The Twin Knights

A gem from the fifties when the legendary master was most deeply involved in girls' comics, Twin Knights is more than just a sequel to the shojo manga milestone Princess Knight. More close addressing issue of station as well as gender, this one-volume tale has all the antic innocence of the early Tezuka even as it revises the more famous works' premise, doing away with the conceit of "boy and girl hearts" and invoking the vagaies of chance and power in their place.

This vintage Disney-esque fairytale is the classic good vs. evil story. About a prince and princess torn apart by evil deeds. The prince raised in the forest by a deer, and the princess raised as both the prince and princess to hide her brother's disappearance. With it's fun characters, surprising plot twists, and artistic achievements, this is a great series for Tezuka fans! Plus, the author's cameo makes reading this title totally worthwhile!
